I always read about other people getting good deals on C/L but every time I find one,, I'm a day late or a dollar short!!!
I finally got a good deal today!! Saw this ad on Denver C/L (see ad below) at 1st I thought it was someones idea of a sick joke, or a typo in price, so i didn't call. I thought about it for about 30 minutes, then thought what the heck I better call, just in case it is real.
I called the guy and asked him a few questions. It was a legit ad and price was not a typo. He said he was at the dealer with his daughter before fathers day (this year) getting something for his 291 and made the comment on how Bad A$$ that 441 looked, well that was all it took she bought it for him as a fathers day gift. He told me he loved the thoughtfulness in the gift, but he has no use for a saw of this size, and would never use it. He does not have a wood stove and only uses his 291 a few times a year to trim some of his trees on his property. He was aware of what she had paid for it, but he just wanted to sell it fast, so was not going to try and get close to retail price. That said I just had to ask him, "are you firm on the price then"?? He said he would come down to $650.
Saw is brand new never seen a piece of wood. They fueled it at the dealer and test ran it, that's it. Came with a 25" bar, tool kit, and the owners manual. For $650, I could NOT BE MORE HAPPY!! Been thinking about buying a new 441 at the dealer, now I dont have to.
I made arrangements to meet up with him and buy it. he called me back about 1 hour after we hung up and asked if I was for sure going to buy it, as he had other people calling wanting it. I told him YES, as long as everything checks out like you say when I get there I'm buying it, so tell the other people it is SOLD!!
